Using SlideShare, you can easily embed your presentations in blog posts and websites.

You can easily upload presentations created using Microsoft PowerPoint and Apple Keynote. You can also upload publications–like newsletters and white papers–formatted as Adobe’s Acrobat PDF files.

Getting the details right

In my Content Marketing Institute article, I show why proofing presentations before uploading them to SlideShare involves more than just checking for typographic errors.

Minor design problems, like inconsistent text formatting or inconsistent placement of text and graphic elements, can undermine the value of your ideas and weaken the image your SlideShare visuals project.

In my article, I describe 22 questions for you to ask while proofing your PowerPoint presentation before uploading it to SlideShare.

For your convenience, I assembled the questions into a 2-page SlideShare Proofing Checklist you can download, print, and use as a guide while proofing your PowerPoint presentations before you upload them to SlideShare.

There’s also ideas and tips that address some of the issues that may cause design problems when creating presentations with PowerPoint.
